In the blue waters off the northeast coast of Australia lies the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.The park was established in 1975 to manage tourist activity on the Great Barrier Reef, one of the seven natural wonders of the world.Stretching for more than 2,300 km, it's the most extensive coral reef system in the world.It can even be seen from space!
Approximately 1.8 million people visit the park each year—and for good reason.Swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving in the park take visitors to a breathtaking underwater world, full of multicolored marine life.The warm waters in the park make it possible to visit year round.Watersports and boating are also popular activities in the park.
The Great Barrier Reef supports a diversity of animal life.More than 1,500 species of fish have been found in and around the reef.The reef is also home to six species of sea turtles, 17 species of sea snakes, and 30 species of dolphins and whales.Visitors can join tour groups to go whalewatching and even swim with whales!

A
Many people believe Henry Ford invented the automobile (汽车)．But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 1896.That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first automobile.Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car's parts to the worker, instead of making the worker move to the parts.That is not true, either.Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford.What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better.And he made the whole factory a moving production line.
In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars.It was the best way of gaining public notice.Henry Ford decided to build a racing car.Ford's most famous race was his first one.It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.
The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit.All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were left: the Winton and Ford's.The Winton was famous for its speed.Most people thought the race was over before it began.
The Winton took an early lead.But halfway through the race, it began to lose power.Ford started to gain.And near the end of the race, he took the lead.Ford won the race and defeated the Winton.His name appeared in newspapers and he became wellknown all over the United States.Within weeks of the race, Henry Ford formed a new automobile company.In 1903, a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company.That_sale was the beginning of Henry Ford's dream.Ford said: “I will build a motor car for the great mass of people.It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for one person to operate and care for.It will be built of the best materials.It will be built by the best men to be employed.And it will be built with the simplest plans that modern engineering can produce.It will be so low in price that no man making good money will be unable to own one.”
The Model T was a car of that kind.It only cost $850.It was a simple machine that drivers could depend on.Doctors bought the Model T．So did farmers.Even criminals.They considered it the fastest and surest form of transportation.Americans loved the Model T．They wrote stories and songs about it.Thousands of Model T's were built in the first few years.
51．What do we know about Henry Ford from Paragraph 1?
A．He made good use of ideas from others.
B．He produced the first car in the world.
C．He knew how to improve auto parts.
D．He invented the production line.
52．Why did Henry Ford take part in the 1901 car race?

B．To draw public attention.
C．To learn about new technology.
D．To raise money for his new company.
53．“That sale” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________.
A．the selling of Ford cars at reduced prices
B．the sale of Model T to the mass of people
C．the selling of a car to a Detroit doctor
D．the sales target for the Ford Company
54．What was Henry Ford's dream according to the text?
A．Producing cars for average customers.
B．Building racing cars of simple design.
C．Designing more car models.
D．Starting more companies.
答案与解析
[语篇解读]'本文为记叙文。汽车不是 Henry Ford 发明的，汽车生产线也不是。那么，究竟是什么让他闻名天下呢？
51．A'细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句“What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better.”可知，Henry Ford 利用并完善了他人的理念。
52．B'细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“It was the best way of gaining public notice.”可知，早期的汽车制造商都会通过赛车这种方式来吸引公众的注意力，Henry Ford 自然也不例外。
53．C'词义猜测题。1903年，底特律的一位医生从 Henry Ford 创办的新公司购买了第一辆车，也正是这次购买成为了 Henry Ford 梦想的开始。因此“That sale”在这里指的就是前文内容。
54．A'细节理解题。文章第四段 Ford 说“I will build a motor car for the great mass of people.”由此可知，Ford 的梦想是为普通大众生产汽车。
B
A striking new species of lungless salamander has been round living in a small stream in the Appalachian foothills of the US.
The salamander is so disting that it's been classified within its own genus, a taxonomic (分类学) grouping that usually inclodesions host of related species.
The creature breathes through its skin, and unusually for its kind, males and females have different colouration.
Such a distinct ampbibian (两栖动物) has not been found in the US for half a century.
The researchers who discovered the salamander describe it in the Journal of Zoology.They have named it the “patchnosed” salamander after the yellow patch on the animal's nose.
The tiny animal averages just 25 to 26mm long.
They found so few of the animals that either it is highly secretive, or more likely it survives in such small, isolated numbers that it is already at the risk of extinction.
“This animal is really an amazing find.” says biologist Carlos Camp of Piedmont College in Demorest, Georgia, who led the team which described the new species.
“It is the first genus of amphibian, indeed of any fourfooted vertebrate (脊椎动物), discovered in the US in nearly 50 years.”
Around the world, there are approximately 500 species of salamander.Twothirds of these species are lungless, breathing entirely through their porous, moist skin.
The Appalachian Highlands of the southeastern US is a hot spot for lungless salamander diversity, with species occupying a variety of moist or wet environments including living in streams, underground, among the leaf litter of the forest floor, up cliffs and in trees.
“The salamander group of the US, particularly of the southern Appalachians, has been intensively studied for well over a century, so the discovery of such a distinct form was completely unsuspected.” says Carlos.
55．What is the purpose of the writer writing this passage?
A．To tell us a find of a new species of lungless salamander.
B．To tell us how the lungless salamander was found.
C．To stress the significance of the new find.
D．To tell us the difference between the lungless salamander and amphibians.
56．Where does the lungless salamander mostly live?
A．Underground.
B．Under fallen leaves.
C．In damp environments.
D．In streams.
57．From what Carlos says, we can learn that ________.
A．the new species was once discovered some fifty years ago
B．the discovery was not so unusual because they had studied it for over a century
C．they were not sure whether they had discovered the distinct species
D．there was no doubt about their discovery
58．In what way is the newlydiscovered species of salamander distinct from other species of this kind?
A．It breathes through skin.
B．Its males and females have different colours.
C．It lives in streams.
D．It is an amphibian.
答案与解析
55．A 写作意图题。通读全文可知作者的目的就是向读者介绍了一个新的物种的发现。所以A为最佳选项。其它选项都是文章涉及的细节。
56．C 细节理解题。从文章的倒数第二段可知，lungless salamander 喜欢栖息在潮湿的环境中，其它选项都过于具体与片面。
57．D 句意理解题。文中两次引用了 Carlos 所说的话，一处是“This animal is really an amazing find，”； “It is the first genus of amphibian, indeed of any fourfooted vertebrate (脊椎动物)，discovered in the US in nearly 50 years.”从这两句中我们知道A、B错；另一处是“The salamander group of the US, particularly of the southern Appalachians, has been intensively studied for well over a century, so the discovery of such a discovery of such a distinct form was completely unsuspected，”可知D正确。
58．B 综合判断题。通读全文知A、C、D三项中提到的特征是新发现的物种与该类其它物种共同具有的特征。只有B项中提到的才是该物种独有的特征。
C
My family and I lived across the street from Southway park since I was four years old.Then just last year the city put a chain link fence around the park and started bulldozing (用推土机推平) the trees and grass to make way for a new apartment complex.When I saw the fence and bulldozers, I asked myself，“Why don't they just leave it alone？”
Looking back，I think what sentenced the park to oblivion(被遗忘) was the drought(旱灾)we had about four years ago.Up until then，Southway Park was a nice green park with plenty of trees and a public swimming pool.My friends and I rollerskated on the sidewalks, climbed the trees, and swam in the pool all the years I was growing up.The park was almost like my own yard.Then the summer I was fifteen the drought came and things changed.
There had been almost no rain at all that year.The city stopped watering the park grass.Within a few weeks I found myself living across the street from a huge brown desert.Leaves fell off the park trees，and pretty soon the trees started dying, too.Next, the park swimming pool was closed.The city cut down on the work force that kept the park, and pretty soon it just got too ugly and dirty to enjoy any more.
As the drought lasted into the fall, the park got worse every month.The rubbish piled up or blew across the brown grass.Soon the only people in the park were beggars and other people down on their luck.People said drugs were being sold or traded there now.The park had gotten scary, and my mother told us kids not to go there any more.
The drought finally ended and things seemed to get back to normal，that is，everything but the park.It had gotten into such bad shape that the city just let it stay that way.Then about six months ago I heard that the city was going to “redevelop” certain wornout areas of the city.It turned out that the city had planned to get rid of the park, sell the land and let someone build rows of apartment buildings on it.
The chainlink fencing and the bulldozers did their work.Now we live across the street from six rows of apartment buildings.Each of them is three units high and stretches a block in each direction.The neighborhood has changed without the park.The streets I used to play in are jammed with cars now.Things will never be the same again.Sometimes I wonder, though, what changes another drought would_make_in_the_way_things_are_today.
59．How did the writer feel when he saw the fence and bulldozers?
A．Scared.
B．Confused.
C．Upset.
D．Curious.
60．Why was the writer told not to go to the park by his mother?
A．It was being rebuilt.
B．It was dangerous.
C．It became crowded.
D．It had turned into a desert.
61．According to the writer, what eventually brought about the disappearance of the park?
A．The drought.
B．The crime.
C．The beggars and the rubbish.
D．The decisions of the city.
62．The last sentence of the passage implies that if another drought came，________.
A．the situation would be much worse
B．people would have to desert their homes
C．the city would be fully prepared in advance
D．the city would have to redevelop the neighborhood
答案与解析
[语篇解读]'本文为记叙文，在小时候，作者家附近有一个公园，他非常喜欢经常去那里玩儿，但是，旱灾改变了这一切，直至政府决定把公园拆除。
59．C'推理判断题。由第二段中的“My friends and I rollerskated on the sidewalks，climbed the trees，and swam in the pool all the years I was growing up.The park was almost like my own yard.”可知作者从前在这个公园附近长大，对公园非常有感情，这个公园好像就是我自己的院子，因此公园要被推平盖房，作者应该非常的难过，upset 意为“难过的”，故选C项。
60．B'推理判断题。根据第四段的描述可知，此时的公园到处是垃圾，乞讨者和一些对命运不满的人经常来这里，并且成为毒品的交易场所，由此可知，孩子去那里会非常危险。故答案为B项。
61．D'事实细节题。根据倒数第二段的最后一句“It turned out that the city had planned to get rid of the park，sell the land and let someone build rows of apartment buildings on it.”可得知，该市决定拆除公园，因此导致公园最终消失的是该市的决定，故答案为D项。旱灾只是改变了公园的面貌，没有导致公园的消失，故不能选A项。
62．A'推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，现在公园被拆除建起了楼房，居住环境改变了，假如再次发生旱灾，情况会变得更加糟糕，树木和绿草都没有了，更不利于保留水分，故选A项。画线句句意：然而，有时候我考虑，像现在这样下去，如果再次发生旱灾的话会有什么变化呢。

For six hours we shot through the landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending,
Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I'd bought in a market in Mozambique.
Southern Africa was full of storier and visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometre from clean water.
As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty——we
hadn't seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye, something moving next to me. I glanced in the mirror of the car; I glanced sideways to the right, and that was when I saw them. Next to us, by the side of the road, thirty, forty wild horses were racing the car, a cloud of dust rising behind them－brown, muscular horses almost close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn't know how long they had been there next to us.
I shouted to Dan: “Look！”， but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet.
They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic_forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
“Wild horses？” he said. “Why didn't you wake me up？”
“I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds.”
“Are you sure you didn't dream it？”
“You were the one who was sleeping！”
Typical, he said. “The best photos are the ones we never take.”
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
63．During their journey in Africa, the two travellers________.
A. made friends with local residents
B. complained about the poor living conditions
C. enjoyed the sunset in the Karoo desert most
D. recorded their experiences in different ways
64．What does the phrase“heroic forms” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Racing cars.
B. Wild horses.
C. Eye－catching locals.
D. Running dogs.
65．What did Daniel think when he woke up and was told what had happened?
A. He always missed out on the best thing.
B. He had already taken beautiful pictures.
C. A sound sleep was more important.
D. The next trip would be better.
66．What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to view wildlife in Africa.
B. Running into wildlife in Africa.
C. Tourist attractions in southern Africa.
D. Possible dangers of travelling in the desert
答案与解析
63．D'考查细节理解。根据Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done.He used a camera.I used words.可知D正确。
64．B'考查猜测词义。根据句意内容应该指追汽车的野马。
65．A 考查细节理解。根据The best photos are the ones we never take.可知A正确。
66．B 考查主旨要义。文章主要叙述了我们在晚上被一群野马追逐的景观，所以文章的大意是Running into wildlife in Africa。

How do you know if your home is an easy aim for thefts(偷窃)？Around the holidays, many families don't consider taking proper measures to prevent their homes from suffering holiday thefts.With just a few simple steps，you can better make sure of the safety of your home during all of the holiday celebrations.Here are a few tips for making it difficult to tell you are away from home.

答案
Dear_Frank,_
I_am_terribly_sorry_to_tell_you_that I have lost the book you were so kind to lend me last week. I like the book very much and I read it every day and intended to finish it next month.Last night when I came to my room, it was nowhere to be found.I will get a new book for you.
Old books are like old friends.Once lost, they can never be replaced.And for this irrecoverable loss, I am to blame, I was so careless with my things.This is a warning to me to be more careful in the future.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
